I get the sentiment, but MAGA being furious at anything doesn’t mean much. They only have that one state.
The magnitude of their anger never changes, but it does change direction.
They’re assmad4lyfe.
Rectal frustration
Haven’t they hated him for months or years now anyway?
But why are they always furious?
Because they scared of everything
Yeah they also get furious at books and healthcare.
“Your Boos Mean Nothing, I’ve Seen What Makes You Cheer”
That’s because black people could get the same healthcare as them or read about their mistreatment in the past. Can’t have that.
read about their mistreatment in the past.
I cannot believe we’re working on preventing this.

To the point even that some black Republicans are going “hey Ron this is going a bit too far”
So there are time when MAGA is NOT furious?
MAGA usually seem pretty happy when they are limiting or taking away the rights of women, people of color, or people that love someone besides the their opposite sex. Another time they are happy is when they are instilling their christian religious beliefs in law while at the same time repressing non-christian beliefs.
In Mitt Romney’s defence, if I had to choose between four more years of Joe Biden and Donald Trump potentially forming the Fourth Reich, I’d choose Sleepy Joe any day of the week.
I don’t like Biden but he needs our energy. The opposition is so much worse.
Almost like Romney is one of the few Republicans with some actual fucking integrity.
It’s kind of funny how McCain and Romney were/are the voice of reason in the GOP. We didn’t know how good we had it. Or rather how much worse it could get.
We took for granted basic decency and respect, and didn’t think Republicans would just toss them out completely.
I remember being mad at him for the 48% comment. Good times.
McCain was usually pretty classy. I disagreed with him on many, many issues, but always respected him.
This is some classy shit. Man was willing to be booed at his own rallies to defend decency.
I think he also would have been a good President overall - much better than any Republican in my lifetime. 2008 was my favorite election ever because both parties put their best candidate forward and they ran a campaign centered on respect (Palin’s antics notwithstanding).
Sure, he was all class, all of the time! What a funny guy, not at all an absolute psycho who shouldn’t have been anywhere close to power.
He was a war mongering cunt, and he can rest in piss.
Obama went nuts with drone assassinations. FDR set up detention camps for American citizens. Washington owned slaves. Churchill helped set up a Zionist state leading to much of our current woes. Bernie supported the NRA until he ran for President. Clinton signed DADT.
They all did way worse things than sing a stupid song to make the crowd chuckle.
It’s only a Reich if it’s from Germany. Otherwise it’s just sparkling dictatorship.
Since the US never ratified the Treaty of Versailles, they can still call it a Reich
Romney is no saint. Just because he is being pragmatic now doesn’t make me trust him.
I can say the same for Joe Biden though. I don’t like his history or his politics but a vote not for him is a vote for Trump next November.
I hate this fucking reality.
This election is going to be one of the worst ones and that’s saying something.
That is what they say every single time. But hey, if we’re unlucky or they cheat, which they will… then it will be the last time they say that.
Guess it’s good he’s not running for office now or re-election later, so he can openly not give one rat’s ass about it.
Amongst the GOP, “many such cases”
Quoting them directly, “Fuck your feelings.”
MAGA furious in much the same way my 1 year old neice was furious that I wouldn’t let her drink paint last weekend.
They transformed him into a RINO lol
Removed by mod
they always say stuff like this once they’re out, since they aren’t playing the game of willfully obtuse anymore.
Sounds like some people need to learn to lift themselves up by their own MAGAstraps
(To the tune of ‘The Eensy Weensy Spider’)
The melty little snowflakes went off the rails again,
“Why won’t fuckin’ Romney stay on the Trumpie Train?”
A zombie’d surely starve there, tryin’ to find a brain,
As the melty little snowflakes go off the rails again.
“Anybody. I would be happy to support virtually any one of the Republicans, maybe not Vivek [Ramaswamy], but the others that are running would be acceptable to me. I would be happy to vote for them. I would be happy to vote for any of the Democrats too. I mean it would be an upgrade from, in my opinion, Donald Trump and perhaps also from Joe Biden,” Romney said.
The senator added: “I like President Biden. I find him a very charming and engaging person, there’s some places I agree with and most places I disagree with him. I think he made all sorts of terrible mistakes, but I would like to see someone else run.”
Smart man. If I were a Republican, I’d probably say the same. He seems to see things right down the line. It’s a shame he didn’t manage to make it to become the 45th president; echoing his sentiment it, would have been a far greater alternative.
He’s an actual traditional conservative, which isn’t a republican anymore. But he has the freedom to say this because he’s on his way out. If he was in the first half of his career, there’s no way he’d be so up front.
That said, as someone who voted against him, it has been refreshing hearing him vocally go against Maga for years. But he has had the luxury because his seat in as head political Mormon in Mormon controlled State, and his status in the party as a former presidential nominee. He was never risking much besides being a target of MAGA domestic terrorism.
He’s a fucking Mormon. Wtf is wrong with you?
The comparison is with trump. I might vote for a Scientologist if he’s my only other option.
Mormons are afaik relatively chill people even if some of their beliefs are a bit whack. I’ve met a few IRL, and that South Park episode fits my understanding of them pretty well. For the most part, I think they follow the actually good parts of the teachings of Christianity rather than going to the fucked up fundamental/GOP version of it.
One side of my extended family converted to the Latter-Day Saints. I’ve been to two Mormon weddings and even once went on a date with a Mormon lady who came from Texas.
They’re chill people, 100%. In fact, they’re probably the closest you’ll get to traditional family values in today’s society. Contrary to beliefs spread by shows like Family Guy, they don’t believe in polygamy. They just don’t like alcohol or caffeine.
This is the best summary I could come up with:
Senator Mitt Romney faced backlash online Saturday from supporters of Donald Trump’s Make America Great Again (MAGA) movement after a resurfaced interview showed him saying he’d vote for Democrats in the 2024 presidential election.
Romney, a Utah Republican who has served in the Senate since 2019, announced in September he won’t seek reelection in 2024, citing age as a contributing factor.
In late October, Trump denounced Romney as “a total loser” who allegedly “begged” to be appointed secretary of state in 2016.
However, Romney has since continued to become a prominent Trump critic and was the lone Republican senator who voted in 2020 to convict the former president after he was impeached for pressuring Ukraine to open an investigation into the Biden family.
The book features several moments of harsh Trump criticism from the Utah senator, including his description of the former president as “really not smart.”
In previous response to a request for comment, Trump spokesperson Steven Cheung told Newsweek that Romney is "a certified loser who announced his retirement after everyone learned he was serving himself instead of his constituents.

Also people on Twitter are big mad. I actually think you’re a good bot for leaving all that nonsense out.
